        Verdict

        John Gosden runs two and Frankie sticks with Mehdaayih rather than the less-exposed Terebellum. The former won a Group 2 at Saint-Cloud before finding one too good in the Nassau at Goodwood in August while the latter landed a Group 2 at Deauville in the same month. WITH YOU (NAP) could only manage fourth in last year’s renewal but posted a better effort back over today’s trip in a Group 1 at Deauville last time when finding only Coronet too good in the heavy going. She’ll go close again with a similar effort and gets the vote. Watch Me won the Coronation Stakes at Ascot though disappointed last time and steps up in trip but the French Oaks runner-up Commes makes some appeal having finished ahead of Etoile at Chantilly. Ryan Moore partners Pink Dogwood despite the latter finishing behind Ligne D'Or and stablemate Fleeting in last month’s Prix Vermeille here and a third Ballydoyle runner in Goddess also has a bit to find at this level.
